Hello canyon friends
I would like to remove these spacers to reduce cockpit height – cannot find any content online on this bike. I don’t think the spacers are split, and I cannot pull them upward. Any help would be so appreciated.
Thanks so much!

they are split in several layers, try prying them open with those phone opening tools. once you have created a gap you should be able to slide them out.
edit: this is how they should look when apart [https://www.canyon.com/en-nl/gear/bike-parts/handlebars-and-stems/canyon-aero-cockpit-spacer-kit/10000061.html](https://www.canyon.com/en-nl/gear/bike-parts/handlebars-and-stems/canyon-aero-cockpit-spacer-kit/10000061.html)
You need to pry the black spacer that’s around the tube on top of them first, then they slide right off.
Question: is the idea that the headcap/spacer is thightened to proper torque no matter the cockpit height?

The first one does not slide to the top… the tube doesn’t allow it
